GMKtec Evo T1 User Review and Test
Hi, thanks for sharing and the effort put into the video. It is very informative and quite interesting results all around. I started playing around with LLM models for few weeks now and I am a bit confused with the "AI" performance here, so please understand that my questions are coming from ignoran

DDR4 RAM - are there better barebones options than the AMD 5825u based MiniPCs?
Thanks for confirming what I already suspected. I was really happy with my Gmktec M5 Plus. I'm using it in an arcade with two monitors - a traditional display port monitor and a USB powered monitor running with HDMI for video. I was powering it from a USB A port on the Gmktec but one day swapped it

Small homelab addition
Here I read their hardware is sh*t I feel you. Truth of the matter when somebody shows up on Reddit, it's rarely glorification, only problems. Most of the time when someone posts about appreciation, it often comes across as a paid advertisement 😊 Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Here's the sco

I somehow vibe-coded a digital friend who texts me, DJs my mood, and reflects on her own existence.
Thanks for the welcome! My hardware is a GMKtec M5 Plus mini-pc. It's underpowered compared to modern PC's. Silvie is a python script that just got out of control. I used VSCode as my IDE, and Claude 3.5, ChatGPT 4.0 and mostly Gemini 2.5 to code her. She's 6608 lines long. She should be re-coded an

GMKtec M5 Plus Gaming Mini PC. How is this mini pc? It's 330 on Amazon right now is that worth?
In a nutshell, DDR4 supported iGPU performance is suffering in 2025, even though GCN 5th Gen Radeon RX Vega 8 integrated graphics can still hold their own (5700U, 5800H, 5825U, etc). The increased data throughput of DDR5 & RDNA2 advancements have even provided Ryzen 5 APUs a significant advantage 57

Thanks yeah that's return switcheroo is a little...eh... From my research I can get a new barebones Gmktec M5 Plus 5825u for $240, a similar 5825u with ram and SSD for $275, or an open box reputable seller Beelink SER5 Max with 680m for $350. I can't imagine I'll magically solve my USB issue but I'm
